If you don’t have an elderly person in your home and you want to tell stories to your children in their voice, then Amazon Alexa will fulfill your wish as well.
Amazon Alexa New Feature – Earlier, children in the house often liked to hear stories from their grandmothers or grandmothers and from time to time, smartphones have taken their place. However, technology can’t compete with the stories that are heard from the mouths of grandmothers. But Amazon Alexa is coming up with a very special technology and service, after which you will not feel the lack of grandparents in the house, that is, you will be able to hear stories in their voice.
Amazon is working on a new Alexa feature that will let the virtual assistant mimic your family member’s voice and then tell your favorite bedtime stories while you sleep. Rohit Prasad, Senior Vice President of Amazon and Head Scientist, Alexa, said, “We are undoubtedly living in the golden age of AI, where our dreams and science fiction are becoming a reality.”
Speaking at the company’s annual ‘Re: Mars’ conference in Las Vegas, Prasad said the Alexa team used just a minute’s speech to achieve the feat. Prasad told the audience, “It required inventions where we had to learn to produce high-quality voices with hours of recording in the studio versus recording less than a minute.”
During a presentation, a child asked, ‘Alexa, can you tell me the story of the wizard in grandma’s voice?’
Alexa said yes and then immediately changed her voice, which looked like the baby’s grandmother in real life. Let me tell you that Alexa is currently working on this feature. Amazon has announced to host its annual Alexa Live event for developers on July 20 and we can hear more about it.
Alexa Live 2022 will give attendees a deep dive behind the science that powers the next generation of ‘ambient intelligence’. Kelly Wenzel, Director of Business to Business and Developer Marketing at Alexa, said: “Our vision for ambient computing can only be realized by the extensive collaboration between Alexa and all of our partners.”
Customers around the world now have millions of Alexa devices. People are using Alexa to play their favorite songs, read the latest headlines, turn off the lights in their living rooms and much more.
